Abstract
A mobile communication device () includes a wide area network (WAN) modem () for communicating over a wireless WAN. During a voice call, the WAN modem operates in a power save mode () but must occasionally scan for handover candidate base stations (). The modem goes directly from the power save mode to a scan mode at an agreed upon time, first selected by the mobile communication device, but which may be modified by the base station.
